"He Who Sees God". Also known as Chamuel, Kemuel, Shemuel, Seraphiel, Camiel, Camiul,
Khamael, Camniel, Cancel and Jahoel.
Camael appears as a warrior dressed in a red tunic. He wears green armour plates,
an iron helmet and has large green wings.
The Angel of Divine Love and the Patron Angel of all who love God. He is
traditionally regarded as chief of the Order of Powers and one of the sefiroth. He is considered to be one of the seven archangels
who stand before God and one of the governing angels of the seven planets, specifically ruler of the planet Mars.
A
gatekeeper of Heaven, Camael is Chief of twelve-thousand fiery Angels of Destruction, all posted there with Camael at the
portals of the sky.
Originally the God of War, Camael personifies divine justice and governs Heavenly singing. He grants
Power, Invisibility, and invincibility. Camael is responsible for holding in check Leviathan, the monster of evil who will
swallow the souls of sinners on Judgment Day. Camael brings to mankind the gift of Godness, the Holy that exists within all
women and men.
Camael gives power in interpersonal relationships and self-discipline, but the most impressive trait
of this Archangel is his knowledge of Karma. Camael can show you how to make up for bad karma and how to purify yourself in
this incarnation. He acts as a judge and can, on your behalf, make sure justice is served. He will only help, however, if
he feels you are honest.
Legend tells of Moses destroying the archangel Camael when this great hierarch tried to prevent
the Lawgiver from receiving the Torah at the hand of God.
Chamuel is considered, along side of Gabriel, to be one
of the angels who strengthened and comforted Jesus on Gethsemane.
Clara Clement in her 1898 book "Angels in Art" regards
Camael as the angel who wrestled with Jacob and also as the angel who appeared to Jesus during his agony in the garden of
Gethsemane.
